No way Netflix is releasing all 22 eps at once. Either it will be split in two parts or they'll experiment with a weekly format (like with the dramas they license from Korean broadcasters). Probably the former.
Netflix says it's not a comedy. I don't think this is a romcom.
They are calling it a "rom-com series" in their promo (like here https://x.com/netflixkcontent/status/1880042376753999968) , but I'm guessing it won't be a romcom like WWWSK or Business Proposal, but more like a romance drama with elements of both comedy and melo.
I'm not sure if they're supposed to be of similar age, because visual wise, Hyunwook looks just too young. If…
In the webtoon, she is his noona (born in 1986 and he in 1989). When they meet while in school in a game, she rejects his confession in part because she finds out he's younger than her.
Look, i like that he is trying to break free from high school drama (like yes burn that sh!t) cause im tired of…
He's not the CEO though. He's the director of a specific branch only (Strategic Planning) and only got the job at his age because he's a nepo baby, son of the actual CEO of the store.
Him being childish but trying to hide that persona at work is literally the point. So the "cosplaying Park Seo-joon" is actually an astute observation and essentially what they're going for. He was also rejected by FL when they were kids in part because she found out he was younger than her.
Um that's a bit odd. I didn't feel like this needed a season 2 :(Oh well it's netflix after all, they never let…
I felt like it did need a Season 2. The first season suffered from having to minimize the FL role because of the actress's DUI which affected especially the end of the season, where she basically just disappeared. It's clear there was a lot of tinkering and cut scenes.
The male leads deserve another round with none of that mess.
She is already good, check her previous projects and you'll see :)
Yep. So many people clearly didn't understand her character at all. "She only had one expression" well did you pay attention to what happened to her, she was barely holding it together and trying not to fall apart. I thought it was a lovely understated performance, perfectly modulated for what the character was going through.
At least if not thinking about age wise, give the role for the more experienced actor like the character of that…
Clearly casting directors disagree with your opinion of his acting capabilities, considering this is Chae-min's third lead role at the age of 24.
I'm sure people like you said the same when Kim Soo-hyun was cast in Moon Embracing the Sun at 22-23 with just as little experience and also a difficult royal role. And he ended up winning the Baeksang for best actor for the role. You can't judge on age and experience.
this boy is 22. i dont think there's like some moral sin happening here but like...this is so weird? i laughed…
You're supposed to laugh, it's a comedy. Him being young and having a childish side is part of the character (and why FL rejected him when they were younger). Hope this helps.
well is not noona romance they are supposed to be the same age as in webtoon, actors have different ages but characters…
Not true. She was 3 years older than him in the webtoon, and that was part of why she rejected him when he first confessed after they met in the game.
In the webtoon, FL was born in 1986 and ML in 1989. So it makes perfect sense that the actors also have a similar age difference, with MGY being older than CHW.
